    I have an opportunity to buy a Grace Pro quilting frame, a Juki TL98E sewing machine, Quilter's Cruise Control and Pattern Perfect for $1575, as a used package deal. Does this seem like a good deal to you? I have done very little machine quilting, but have doubts as to how long I will be able to hand quilt with my bad thumbs, so am interested in machine quilting. Am not sure if my lack of expertise and knowlege warrants such a big purchase. Any thoughts would be appreciated!

    well call me pessimistic but you know what they say about things that sound too good to be true, can you go see it in person/ try it out? I'd hate for you to take the plunge and hit a rock! But if it is a good deal we'll all be envious. Be sure to keep us posted.
